Cpanel/WHM ways to configure PHP
DSO — Provides PHP through libphp4.so or libphp5.so (aka, mod_php). This option is usually the fastest way to execute PHP requests; however, this option uses the system user called “nobody” to serve all PHP requests.
suPHP — Provides PHP through mod_suphp. Using this option is probably the most flexible way of serving PHP requests and is generally very secure. Under this option, PHP scripts will be executed by the user who owns the VirtualHost serving the request.
FCGI — This option serves PHP through mod_fcgid. This is a fast way of serving PHP requests but will most likely require that you tweak php.conf. You can enable suEXEC to execute PHP scripts under the user who owns the VirtualHost that is serving the request or, if suEXEC is disabled, PHP will be served by the system user ‘nobody’.
